An adult human body has nearly 100,000 miles in blood vessels (if laid out in one straight line). Most carry blood to and from the heart. Columbia Univ. Medical Center Vascular Surgeon Dr. Danielle Bajakian discusses causes, treatment and risk reduction for conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) blood clot, artherosclerosis (hardening and narrowing of the arteries) and varicose veins. Healthy habits such as weight management, regular exercise, hydration and not smoking are important.
